It allows for complete forgiveness for any crime. It teaches that all humanity born is immoral with a sinful nature, that without salvation through Jesus Christ, we are destined for damnation. It teaches not to rationalize or think skeptically, but to have unquestionable obedience and &quot;get in line.&quot; It gives us Hell, this place of eternal torment, for those who do not believe. It uses fear as a tactic to gain followers. It urges that you &quot;spread the word,&quot; make others believe as you do. The Bible promotes sexual suppression and teaches that sex between two consenting adults is wrong if they are not married. It has always been stifling to science, rejecting any scientific finding if it conflicts with the doctrine. It teaches that God has predetermined our destinies in some grand plan. God either blesses us with success or is testing us with failure. We are not truly responsible for ourselves. <br /><br />Why we must reject it <br /><br />If we desire to be rational, compassionate and intellectually honest, we must reject the Christian doctrine based on moral grounds.<br /><br />1) Doing good deeds for others should be considered the most honorable act. Caring for others is more important than one&#39;s personal choice to choose a god or not.<br /><br />2) To offer complete forgiveness (in the afterlife), a clean slate for any crime, simply because the person converted to Christianity, is not justice. There should be no forgiveness for the worst crimes against humanity.<br /><br />3) Babies are not sinful or evil. Children are innocent. Our children do not have evil natures.<br /><br />4) The scientific method is proven to be the most accurate way for us to know what is true around us. Religion has severely hurt humanity by stifling scientific progress, such as the forcing of abstinence programs in Africa, halting stem cell research, stifling the teaching evolution in public schools, denying rights for gay partners.<br /><br />5) A good value system should not be one based on threats and fear. It should be based on freedom of thought, and rationality.J.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03863601884719279065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18487956.post-20604603305893725362010-11-23T23:40:26.969+08:002010-11-23T23:40:26.969+08:00I see your point.

Simple common sense should tell us there is something wrong with this line of thinking. Let&#39;s look at this concept in detail:<br /><br />Good deeds aren&#39;t enough to get you to Heaven; you must be saved and accept Jesus as Lord and Savior. <br /><br />Bad deeds will not preclude you from Heaven; as long as you repent your sins and accept Jesus, all can be forgiven. <br /><br />By this logic, the following WILL NOT be admitted into Heaven: <br /><br />A) Any upstanding and moral Hindu, Jew, Muslim, or member of any other religion who does not proclaim Jesus as God. <br /><br />B) Any non-Christians who are philanthropists and those who work to improve humanity. <br /><br />C) Indigenous tribes and people of any country who have never heard of Jesus. <br /><br />D) Atheists, agnostics, and humanists. <br /><br />The following WILL be admitted into Heaven: <br /><br />A) Christians who try to live according to the teachings of Jesus. <br /><br />B) Anyone (including murderers, thieves, and liars) who accepts Jesus as Lord and Savior, and asks for forgiveness, and tries to live a righteous life from that moment forward.<br /><br />Conclusion: <br /><br />A Hindu has at least &quot;some&quot; chance to get into Heaven because at least he/she has a belief in God, even if it is the wrong God. But an atheist has no &#39;shot in Hell,&#39; so to speak, to get into Heaven because he/she is rejecting God altogether. Even a child molester has a better shot at getting into Heaven than an atheist because a child molester can repent and still know and accept Jesus. <br /><br />Heaven will admit hardened criminals. I&#39;d rather not attend. <br /><br />When I think of all of the people who are going to be in heaven, the idea sounds less attractive...actually, terrible. Many in our prison population have accepted Jesus and are Christians. Former thieves, murderers, violent offenders, child molesters, and psychopaths have become &quot;saved&quot; and will be hanging out in Heaven with Jesus. I don&#39;t want to be around a bunch of murderers and child molesters for eternity! That may be good enough for Jesus, but it&#39;s not good enough for me. I don&#39;t want to go to Heaven; there has to be another option. What does the Hell situation look like? If I go to Hell, I will still have to be around criminals, but at least there will be cool rockin&#39; music being played!J.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03863601884719279065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18487956.post-12582533391265051022010-11-01T17:50:08.568+08:002010-11-01T17:50:08.568+08:00share lang po
